NEET Chemistry Coordination Number Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Tetrahedral | (i) 4 |
| (b) Trigonal bipyramidal | (ii) 5 |
| (c) Octahedral | (iii) 6 |
| (d) Square planar | (iv) 4 |
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The coordination number is determined by the number of sigma bonds formed by ligands with the central atom. Tetrahedral coordination has a coordination number of 4, trigonal bipyramidal has 5, and octahedral has 6, while square planar also has a coordination number of 4.
